What is Recycled Water?
Recycled water, also known as reclaimed water or water reuse, is wastewater that has been treated and purified so it can be used for a beneficial purpose.
It is a sustainable and dependable water source that helps conserve limited drinking water supplies, especially in drought-prone areas.
Key Facts About Recycled Water
Source:
It is primarily sourced from municipal wastewater (sewage) from homes and businesses, but can also include stormwater runoff.
Process:
The water goes through multiple, highly advanced stages of purification—including primary, secondary, and tertiary (or advanced) treatment—to remove solids, pathogens, and other impurities.
Safety:
The water is treated to strict local, state, and federal standards to ensure it is safe for its intended reuse purpose.
